Tracked as CVE-2021-36380, the critical OS command injection flaw that NCC Group's Liam Glanfield discovered could allow an attacker to establish an interactive channel with the affected device, taking control of it.
Cgi script, which "Directly incorporated user-controllable parameters within a shell command, allowing an attacker to manipulate the resulting command by injecting valid OS command input," Glanfield explains.
Command injection was possible using $() and running the arbitrary commands within the parenthesis.
The vulnerability was reported to Sunhillo on June 21 and a patch was released on July 22, in Sunhillo SureLine version 8.7.0.1.1.
